What breaks down and moves in Stellenbosch
Stellenbosch is a university town ringed by wine farms, and its towing work follows students, tourists and farm traffic on narrow roads. The R44 to Somerset West and Klapmuts, the R310 over Helshoogte to Franschhoek and towards the N2, and the R304 to the N1 are busy wine routes with tight bends, cyclists and slow tractors. Students often need cars, bikes and scooters moved at the start and end of term, and wine estates move bins, tractors and forklifts. Winter rain makes Helshoogte slippery and summer heat stresses old cars in town traffic. Students, parents, estates, tourists and Technopark firms ask for tows, trailers and car transport here.
Typical trailer hitches and couplings requests in the area come from:
- Motorists and families: a new coupling and lock for a utility trailer that sits on the driveway
- Farmers and 4x4 owners: replacement couplings and jockey wheels for farm trailers worn by gravel roads
- Caravan, boat and bike owners: a lock and a stabiliser coupling for a caravan or a boat trailer
